At Ralph Lauren Corporation, we are committed to producing highquality
products responsibly, and we require our vendors across all
regions of the world to meet our corporate, social and regulatory
standards.
We focus on strategic collaboration and partnerships to increase
information sharing and to achieve meaningful progress on sourcing
efficiencies, human rights and a sustainable supply chain, which
we believe are all essential not only to our success but also to the
success of our vendors.
We believe it is our responsibility to source vendors that exhibit
best-in-class standards for quality and compliance in the operations
of their business. We contract for the manufacture of our products
and do not own or operate any production facilities; as a result, our
products are made by independent manufacturers that we collaborate
with to create a cohesive and transparent relationship. We recognize
that these manufacturers are the stewards of their own businesses
and must take a proactive approach to continuous management of
their operations. We work to foster positive business relationships
with all contracted vendors.
